How to cut the same section from multiple images?

I started retouching a face in a portrait and saved it as a separate file. Later I wanted to extract the same section from the original and the modified images to show to a client. How can I get exactly the same section from two separate images?

TIA

I'd drag the cropped image back over the original, set transparency to about half, find the match position, select all on the retouched layer, then deselect the transparent (cropped area). Trash can that layer and the selection will remain on the original. Crop and save.

When you've made the selection in the first image, click on the select option, the last entry should be "save selection". You can then save this selection as a black and white image which can then be copied as a new layer to any other document you want.
